You have two choices: Take the 8:55 AA flight from DUB to JFK or take a later DUB-LHR-JFK/EWR flight. Better equipment on the latter option (757 vs anything else).
For the return you can take the one AA JKF-DUB flight (767) or do another boomerang back through London.
Fare around £960. Add to that 115 or so return from London, and you're still flying business (with varying degree of quality) for less than BA want to WT+ on the same route.
TP: Anywhere from 280 to 360 depending on whether you connect back through LHR
Worth clarifying that there are restrictions on this fare - 7 night minimum stay and tickets must be issued by 03 Jun. It's available for the following travel periods:
- 01 Jul - 31 Aug
- 23 Nov - 30 Nov
- 23 Dec - 02 Jan
- 28 Mar - 12 Apr
But if you can take advantage, this is a great price!
